ActionScript 3.0 :: SwfAddress: Differentiating Between OnChange Events
Jun 18, 2009
Is there any way to differentiate between the origin of onChange events?
I understand that both come from the browser (or more specifically, the javascript side of things), I think, but my app specifically requires me to separate the two, as not all app change events will fire a new title/url (but still need to be processed in the same way as the ones that DO fire new title/url changes).
This goes against Rostislav's suggestion [URL], but I just don't see any way around it.
I'd basically only like to process the onChange events that come as a result of entering a URL directly, OR using the back/forward/history entries....and keep all other navigation happening in Flash separate.

The timeline swf itself (the core of the site) is being loaded into a wrapper swf, as one of the requirements is that this timeline can be used elsewhere, in other projects. This wrapper, however, will have some additional visuals that pertain to a stand-alone version of this timeline. As a result of never knowing exactly where this is going to be used (either a subchapter in another flash website, or as a stand-alone site by itself), I've decided to dump all of the swfAddress code into the wrapper, in a child class of it. To handle the navigation changes, I'm dispatching custom events (from the timeline) with parameters that describe the nav changes, which gets picked up by the parent wrapper, which then calls a function in the swfAddress child class for handling.
Also done in this swfAddress class is the parsing of the URL onChange event (when a browser back button button or history changes the nav, rather than a Flash button). This, too, dispatches an event with info about the parsed URL, which the wrapper is picking up and then calling a function in the timeline's API to make the necessary changes.

Or at least that's the impression I'm getting. Locally in Flash, it all seems to work fine. When I open it in Safari or Firefox, it messes up some of my functions, and I THINK it's because the onChange function fires twice. Just can't figure it out.[code]Then changePage2() comes into play, but the problem is before this apparently.when I go to the URL directly, or when hitting the back button. It goes wrong when the change is triggered inside the movie.

I'm doing a little website and using swfaddress for deep linking. Everything seems to be setup as it should, swfaddress is working fine when i'm setting values, like the page title or url and stuff.On the other hand, SWFAddress.onChange event is not responding at all. Has anyone got an idea or had this "bug" before ?

Does TweenLite or TweenMax support the onChange function?
I would like to re-code using TweenLite/TweenMax to get my textbox to numerically display the constantly changing x position of my tween.
I did have this code before:
I tried some variations with the following to no avail:
nextTween1.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_CHANGE, onChange);function onChange(evt:TweenEvent):void {mph_digital.mph_counter.text = int((dial_graphics_mph.x * .20528)*10)/10;}
also how do i define tweens as variables now with TweenLite / TweenMax?

Step 2 for me is to populate a second comboBox with a particular year from the model choosen from the first comboBox. I know I need to use the onChange event, but am not exactly sure where to write this within my script? I also am not so sure about the way I am writing my XML to pull out the <Year>XXXX</Year> to populate the second combo box.Step 3 for me is to allow the user to press the "ENTER" button to launch the applicable URL that corrilates with the model (first comboBox) and year (second comboBox) chosen by the user.AS3 Code:
import fl.controls.ComboBox;import fl.data.DataProvider;import flash.events.Event;
// Dynamically adds the combo box(s) to the stagevar model_dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider(xmlData)

I've got an inputfield.OnChange Event Handler.When someone types a letter, i want the letter to become 0, then 1, then 2, and so on until 9 and then i want the letter to be there.And when they click on another letter, same effect happens.so at the end if i typed, "testing", each letter scrolls 0-9 like a roll dial and settles on the letter typed.What i've managed to do is make it work, but if i type at normal speed and not slow, i end up getting something like: t32t43g

Just wanted to ask if there is any advantage for either using mouse click event or touch tap events, when writing apps for mobiles or tablets (for the iphone especially)?
I know that both of them should work fine, but in term of performance, is anyone better? Are there any things I should be aware of when choosing either?
By the way am using actionscript3 to implement the app.

I have an animation that I want to start when clicking on the flash window. However, I've also have some buttons on the stage. If I add an event listener for MouseEvent.CLICK on the stage, then it 'eats up' the events and the buttons don't work.
I've tried some tricks, by adding some invisible buttons on top of the real ones, and use the MOUSE_OVER event to selectively enable/disable the mouseEnabled flag for the stage, but didn't work because it complains that the property or method doesn't exist (which I find odd).

For some really dumb reasons, I must support IE6 in the project I'm currently working on (think multi-paged microsite). I have SWFaddress, now, worked into my navigation system, and it is working as expected in chrome and FF.
When I get into IE6 I am having the following problem:
The "browser URL Update" phase of the SWFAddress.setValue -> SWFaddressEvent.Change
cycle fails to function, except when the mouse cursor leaves the SWF frame. When the mouse leaves the frame, SWFaddress history gets updated as expected and the browser navigation buttons function as expected.
But if the mouse cursor stays within the swf, none of this happens, and any stateChanges are skipped by the browser buttons.

Hello all.
Having a hard time getting info on SWFADDRESS so I thought I'd try here as Kirupa has saved my butt in the past.
So my question is this.
I am trying to attach a variable to the end of my SWFADDRESS url but can't get it to register. I can get it working fine using SWFOBJECT like so
http://website.com?Var=1&Var2=2
but once I add the deeplinking I can't get any results.
http://website.com/#/Home/?Var=1&Var2=2
or
http://website.com/#/Home?Var=1&Var2=2
My code in the html is :
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var so = new SWFObject('Example', 'website', '800px', '600px', '8');
so.useExpressInstall('swfobject/expressinstall.swf');
so.addVariable("Var", getQueryParamValue("Var"));
so.addVariable("Var2", getQueryParamValue("Var2"));
so.addParam("wmode","transparent");
so.write("flashcontent");
// ]]>
</script>
Anyone have a way around this or a good source for SWFADDRESS help?
Would really help me out!
Cheers

Am successfully using swfaddress and love it. For the first time though I'm trying to implement it on a site that has a load bar. The issue is if I use the browser's back button I'll eventually get to a page that just shows the full loadbar and stops. It is the the page that I have labeled "$/". If I don't put that label on the first frame then other worse problems occur. [URL]...

I have created a menu with XML data. I have created a movieclip navigationMc this is placed on the first frame of the stage. Inside navigationMc I have another movieclip and named it as menuitems where I am calling the XML. I am calling a button from the library through linkage property called menuitem. I have another movieclip on the stage called pageContainerMC for loading external swfs. Now the script on the main stage - Frame 1 is:
stop();
this.pageContainerMC.loadMovie("assets/work/augmented-reality/augmented-reality.swf",2);
//
#include "SWFAddress.as"
[code]....
The swf address shows on clicking the button but it doesn't load movie once you click back and forward button on the browser also it doesn't change the name of the title.

I have spent several days now trying to make SWFAddress 2.4 work. I followed very closely Lee's video, but I can't make it work. I get the site working, but I cannot make the deep linking nor the title change to work. I am using CS3 with AS 3.0 and SWFAddress 2.4. My PC has Vista Home Premium and I tested this on several browsers (IE, Safari, Opera, and Firefox).
Here is my html code:
Code: Select all<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
[Code].....
The FLA file is constructed the same way as in the video with 3 MC's which visibility I toggle based on which button is pressed. The trace() call in onChange displays correctly the value I am setting in each one of the button event listeners, however the url never changes and the back and forward buttons are never enabled.

i have been trying SEO to get it noticed. I came across Swfaddress and statemanager and decided to implement them. I have examined the sample files for both methords and decided i want to use SWFaddress (it works well with google analytics).My problem is that the examples of swfaddress use a frame based navigation and my site uses buttons which load the pages into a loader component via a preloader. Do you think it would be possible to use SWFaddress with my site?

ive been trying to get swfaddress working. And everything works fine ( the getValue function shows the right content, setTitle does its job etc ) except for setValue. When i set it to for instance setValue("news"), the url in the browser is updated to index.html?#news
that question mark shouldn't be there i guess... it also reloads my page every time. I have no idea where to start looking as i dont know what's causing it. anyone else had this issue before ?

I have noticed that using the "addEventListener" and coming back into a frame, I get multiple events tied to the same component.The design I am using jumps to an "I" frame (intermediate) and then back to the "M" frame (main) when the user performs an action.I add event listeners to several components when I enter that M frame. What I notice is that the events seem to stack up for a particular component.
For instance, if I enter M frame, N number of times and addEventListener("click", handleEvent) to a radio button, I get N calls to handleEvent when the user clicks on the radio button. I guess this kinda makes sense but is not what I want. I just want one event of a particular type (in this case "click") to be associated with the a particular component. I get around this issue by removing the event(s) in the I frame. Then they get reinstalled in the M frame. Only one at a time.
So, just wondering about this behaviour. Is there a way to check for the number of events that are currently active on a particular component? Better way to handle adding events?

I am designing a music player using JavaScript (jQuery) and HTML5, with Flash AS3 to fall back. Basically what I want to do is to be able to click HTML control elements and have them interact with the flash in order to play/pause and skip tracks in the playlist (playlist JSON file read by JavaScript, passes file ID to AS3, AS3 reads another JSON file to get URL, then plays audio)
This enables me to only use the Flash to play the audio, thus creating the same user experience regardless of HTML5 browser support. I'm assuming I will have to 'listen' for events in AS3, however any pointers in how to engage these events in JS and react to the events in AS3
